People who have grown to know and love ad blocking will move en masse to Firefox. That would be a good thing.

The attempt to force users into a system they don't want when there are other options available results in a loss of users.

I’m not so sure about that. From a nontechnical users’s point of view, they aren’t entirely shutting down adblockers outright, but merely slightly inconveniencing them - most users will probably migrate to a different, less powerful ad blocker and just keep using Chrome. We’re all frogs in water while Google keeps raising the temperature just ever so slightly higher.
